Scandal
Karma Fields Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
S'il vous plaît
Look em in the eye
Fashioned smile
Turn on that charm
Sashay back
Cold as ice
Act like tomorrow
Is when you die
Feel no pain
Roll the dice
Hit the diamonds
Out the sky
S'il vous plaît
Perfect scandal
Perfect scandal
Perfect scandal
Perfect scandal
Find your fate
Do your game
Make the tides rise
And boil your hearts
Armies fall
Kings held all
Under your spell
Little do they know
Perfect scandal
Perfect scandal
"Scandal" by Karma Fields is a song that talks about someone who appears to be very charming and confident but is, in reality, emotionless and cold. The lyrics in the first verse describe how this person puts on a fake smile and uses charm to get what they want. They remain unaffected by their surroundings, and the phrase "act like tomorrow is when you die" implies that they do not have a plan for the future.
The chorus of the song comprises the repeated line "Perfect scandal," which is an oxymoronic phrase because a scandal, by definition, is far from perfect. It suggests that the person in the song knows how to create the perfect scandal or manipulates situations to their advantage, even if they are morally wrong.
The second verse continues to describe this person's personality and actions. They take risks without feeling any pain or emotion, and the phrase "hit the diamonds out the sky" suggests that they are successful in whatever they do. The phrase "under your spell" implies that they are very persuasive and can influence others to do what they want. It is interesting to note that the song has an eerie, almost mechanical sound to it, which adds to the overall feeling of "perfect scandal."

@Woahago
This is art.
@RMNDK4life
I fucking love this so much. It really complements the original track, and sounds beautifully orchestrated.
I really hope that's KF's voice in that because it sounds awesome.
@anteros__
RMNDK4life Its not but i wish we could hear his voice.
@qoo9437
KF is a guy
@jenniferbranch5740
No who kf? Lol hate utube it's my husband ex monstercat that never stopped making music
@leytonfu3497
To those who are confused about who KF is. Karma Fields is the first AI musician who existed, defining as neither he or she. I know this is an old comment but just to clear up the message.
@partyparrot1017
Leyton Fu I’m also late but I got completely thrown off about your statement as soon as the HEX live performance released shortly later.
@SevenBerries420
I dunno what it is with this song, but I have an odd obsession with it. I'm either listening to it, or it's playing in my head. :l
